All of his examples use appropriate data for the chart type chosen and it takes a passionate person to put together a tool like this. Travis clearly knows a lot about graphing and visualization. ![]() What I’d propose is that a field guide or instructional manual come with the purchased fonts that explains not just how to use the chart types but why you’d use them. I’m all for the democratization of chart creation and design but I think part of that process has to be education. Like a yo-yo that lights up and makes noise but breaks if you use it the wrong way. Travis mentions that Rose, Radar and Rings are a more experimental set for Chartwell but they’re also very eye catching. There’s no doubt that FF Chartwell breaks down a lot of the barriers for someone to create their first chart but I’d argue that their first chart probably shouldn’t use Chartwell Rose or Radar. ![]()
